New TV (£170 budget)
« on: 30 June 2012, 20:33 »
A friend is looking for a new TV after his girlfriend took his when they broke up (it was a present she gave him, b!tch). So £170 budget. Size, around 32" if possible, must have built in freeview and at least 1 HDMI port.

£170 isn't enough really, not for anything decent.  You could get some no name make, but the picture quality will be atrocious.

For about £200 he can just about get something half decent.

This.
I found most are awful, especially when hooked up to a pc or Xbox.
I would say save up at least £250 and get an LG LED jobby :smiley:
